"Where Did You Get That Girl?"
1913
Words by Bert Kalmar
Music by Harry Puck
Lonesome Johnnie Warner,
Sitting in a corner of a swell cafe,
Eating his heart away because he had no girl.
At another table sat a girl named Mabel with a fellow
who Johnnie knew and his brain began a-whirl.
The girl had caught his eye, and John began to cry.
Where did you get that girl? Oh, you lucky devil. Where did you
get that girl? Tell me on the level. Have you ever kissed her?
If she has a sister, lead me, lead me, lead me to her, mister.
Gee! I wish I had a girl. I’d love her. I’d love her.
Oh, goodness, how I’d love her.
If you can find another, I’ll take her home to mother.
Where! Where! Where did you get that girl?
Johnnie found a corker, started in to walk
her down the avenue--down to the parson
who would make them man and wife.
Parson Lee received him, and when he relieved him
of the marriage fee, Parson Lee said, "Never in my life
have I seen such a miss. Say, Johnnie, tell me this..."

00:00SIGUE LUCHANDO
00:30A la otra mesa, se sentaba una chica llamada Mabel, con un compañero a quien Johnny conocía, y su cerebro comenzó a gritar.
00:44La chica le tocó el ojo, y Johnny comenzó a llorar.
00:49¿Dónde la encontraste, chica? ¡Oh, maldita sea!
00:53¿Dónde la encontraste, chica? ¡Dime en el nivel!
00:59¿Has tenido una hija? ¿Si tiene una hermana?
01:03Lléveme, lléveme, lléveme a ella, señor jefe.
01:09Desearía que tuviera una chica.
01:12La amaría, la amaría. ¡Oh, Dios mío, cómo la amaría!
01:17Si puedes encontrar a otra, la llevaré a casa de mi madre.
01:21¿Dónde, dónde, dónde la encontraste?
01:29Johnny encontró a la chica, y empezó a caminarla por la avenida,
01:37a la persona que lo haría hombre y esposa.
01:43Parson Lee la recibió, y cuando la liberó de la tarifa de casamiento,
01:51Parson Lee dijo, ¡Nunca en mi vida!
01:57¿He visto una chica así? ¡Dime, Johnny, dime esto!
02:02¿Dónde la encontraste, chica? ¡Oh, maldita sea!
02:06¿Dónde la encontraste, chica? ¡Dime en el nivel!
02:11¿Has tenido una hija? ¿Si tiene una hermana?
02:15Lléveme, lléveme, lléveme a ella, señor jefe.
02:21Desearía que tuviera una chica.
02:24La amaría, la amaría. ¡Oh, Dios mío, cómo la amaría!
02:28¿Perdone mi sugerencia? Me gustaría preguntarle.
02:33¿Dónde, dónde, dónde la encontraste?
02:37¿Dónde la encontraste, chica? ¡Oh, maldita sea!
02:42¿Dónde la encontraste, chica? ¡Dime en el nivel!
02:47¿Has tenido una hija? ¿Si tiene una hermana?
02:51Lléveme, lléveme, lléveme a ella, señor jefe.
02:57Desearía que tuviera una chica.
03:00La amaría, la amaría. ¡Oh, Dios mío, cómo la amaría!
03:04Me daría mucho placer robarte de tu tesoro.
03:09¿Dónde, dónde, dónde la encontraste?
